Spiced Pork and Ham

I like Monty Phyton! Some people say it's stupid and silly and I think, they're completely right. But it's better to have some fun with stupidity than to have no fun at all. Nuff said, let's go on to this one:

The Spam Sketch

from the second series of "Monty Python's Flying Circus" and "Monty Python's Previous Record"

SPAM= Spiced Pork And Ham, a sort of cheap luncheon meat)

Scene:

A cafe. One table is occupied by a group of Vikings with horned helmets on.

A man and his wife enter.

MAN:

WIFE:

MAN (to waitress):

WAITRESS:

MAN:

WAITRESS:

WIFE:

WAITRESS:
